The snow on your eyelids that curtsy with age is freezing the stares on tyranny's wings.
Autumn, Winter.
Cold.
That's what I hate about it. At school, I have to have at least two long sleeved shirts, and that really cuts the freedom of choice and creativity in clothing. I suppose I should get more knitwear and cardigans.... It's actually kind of the same thing in summer these days, accept the opposite, then it's so hot you can't wear anything but sleeveless shirts and shorts/skirts or dresses. That's why spring and the early fall are maybe the easiest seasons. Coldness, in my opinion is the worst thing.
But there are good things about autumn and winter too. Being home never feels quite as enjoyable as during the cold season, even going to a hot shower feels like something luxurious. Is there anything more relaxing than having some good food, warm clothes and a good movie to watch? Speaking of which, I rented four movies (from the library, saved a lot of money), one french movie, Les Amants Du Point Neuf with Juliette Binoche, where a homeless person and an artist fall in love. Artists are obviously cool, and homeless people... they're interesting, aren't they? I've always had a thing for homeless people... they're pretty mysterious. Then, David Lynch's Wild at Heart, I thought I have to see a David Lynch film, since I've heard (read) so much about him lately. Then, some classics, the James Dean film Rebel Without a Cause, 'cause I ought to see a James Dean movie, he's after all an important character in the family tree of coolness. Last but not least, Fellini's 8½.
So, it's weekend, I don't have any obligations, I have good food and I have movies. Even my usual "I'm-so-lonely" mood is gone. What's there not to like?
